Description of the problem	I was driving on a major highway when all of a sudden the automatic transmission downshifted into second gear. The frontier immediately slowed down. I was driving in front of a tractor trailer and just missed getting rear ended. I've since found out that nissan has been aware of the radiator leaking and cross contaminating with the transmission fluid and blowing out the transmission. This is a dangerous situation with these vehicles involved and nissan should be responsible for correcting their defect regardless of vehicle mileage. This vehicle needs to be recalled and fixed.
